Notes: See, this is why I have such a bias toward nouns. Trying to find exact equivalents was very difficult and I'm still not sure of a lot of the choices.

Example sentences: "He handed me it."
  1. Er hat's mir ausgehändigt.
  2. Hij overhandigde 't me.
  3. Me lo entregó.
  4. Me'l va lliurar.
  5. Il me l'a remis.
  6. Fe estynodd e fe i mi.
  7. Do thoirbhir sé dhom é.
  8. 내게 건넸어요.
  9. 他遞給我.

My first thought for "he handed it to me" is thug sé dom de lámh é. I don't think toirbhir is incorrect, per se, but it does occupy a higher register than I imagine you want. The only time I've seen toirbhir used is in the name Ord na Toirbhirte, the Presentation Order of nuns. So, when I read your sample sentence I immediately interpreted it as God bestowing something upon you.
